What our OT says:
As an occupational therapist, I recommend this set without hesitation. Bath time is one of the richest developmental environments available to young children, warm water naturally relaxes the body, lowers sensory defensiveness, and creates an ideal window for building foundational motor and cognitive skills. The Splashy Seas set is cleverly designed to target multiple skill areas simultaneously, all while feeling like pure fun.
The fishing rod demands precise hand-eye coordination and tripod-like grasp, the same grip pattern that underpins pencil control and self-care tasks. As your child aims the hook at a floating creature, their visual system must track a moving target and send accurate signals to their hand muscles to adjust position, a skill that occupational therapists call visual-motor integration. This is one of the most important precursor skills for writing, drawing, and coordinated play.
Holding the rod steady with one hand while manoeuvring the hook with the other is a beautiful example of bilateral coordination, both sides of the body working together in a differentiated, purposeful way. Research consistently shows that bilateral integration activities are an indicator that both hemispheres of the brain are communicating effectively, laying the groundwork for crossing the midline and eventually establishing a dominant hand.
The varied sizes, shapes, and textures of each silicone sea creature also deliver rich tactile and proprioceptive input, supporting sensory processing development. And the act of fishing builds something just as important as motor skill: patience, attention, and persistence the executive function foundations that children will rely on throughout their school years.
Other Ways to Play:
- Colour naming game: Ask your toddler to catch a specific creature by name or describe its colour, building vocabulary and listening comprehension.
- Water table / sensory bin: Fill a plastic tub with water and use the set as a sensory bin play station perfect for warm-weather outdoor play or rainy days.
- Counting & sorting: Place all creatures in the tub and challenge your child to catch them in a set order, count them aloud, or sort by size, great for early numeracy.
- Pretend ocean storytelling: Use the characters to narrate an underwater adventure together, building imaginative play, narrative language, and turn-taking skills.
- Squeeze & squirt: The whale doubles as a water squirter fill and squeeze to build hand strength and cause-and-effect understanding.
- Turn-taking & siblings: Take turns fishing, one child holds the rod, the other places creatures building social-emotional skills like sharing and waiting.
Let customers speak for us
All three of my girls are loving this simple addition to the outside play area. Seems quite strong as I absolutely launch them. Love the fact that the height is adjustable. Great product - Happy.
We absolutely loved the gorgeous gift that we received of the cutest black & white flower bouquet with Afr & Eng gift tags for Mother's Day of 2026!
It was simply lovely and só spot on!
Thank you Tiny Tree Toys! ⚘️
I absolutely love this puzzle, and have purched multiple ones as gifts. It is well crafted, and the wood is neatly rounded off. I'll be honest I've never played the game guidlines included, and rather use it as a catalyst in my creative processes. I love the fact that there are no rules to this, and the opportunity to use it as an expressive tool. My tiny human loves it too, and can play endlessly with captivated imagination.
Absolutely love the wooden stacking toys, I am trying to move away from plastic and purchase better quality educational toys for my baby and this is the perfect shop for that!
Great addition to our light-box and there are more than one of each letter in this set. This gives you more word building opportunities.
What a great fine motor beading set. They give nice resistance when children push them together and pull them apart, which helps strengthen the fingers and improve hand control.
My nearly-4-year old daughter loves playing 'doctor' with this doll. She took it to school show and tell and it was a hit!
Another great buy from tiny tree toys <3
The Humpty Dumpty wall game is a firm favourite with our toddlers. It’s a simple cause-and-effect activity that immediately grabs attention and keeps little ones engaged. While it’s a plastic game and not the most durable piece in the room, the value for money is excellent. The amount of fun, repetition, and learning we’ve had from it makes it well worth it for early play and therapy sessions.
The rope ladder brings instant adventure into the OT space. It invites pretend play while quietly working on grip strength, shoulder stability, core control, and bilateral coordination. Climbing rung by rung challenges motor planning and body awareness, while the imaginative element keeps children motivated and engaged. It’s a brilliant way to blend functional movement, confidence-building, and play in a way that feels exciting rather than therapeutic.
The trapeze swing is always a hit in the OT room. It builds strong arms, shoulders, and core while giving the kind of movement input kids love. Swinging, hanging, and climbing all support coordination, body awareness, and regulation without it ever feeling like hard work. Big movement, big smiles, and loads of therapeutic value packed into one piece of equipment.
I was so excited to see something new in educational games. This can be used in many different ways. Perhaps it would be useful to list the different ways it can be used from simple to complex.
We are using this in therapy and I think the size and challenge is perfect for many of the kids we work with. One suggestion would be to add an extra one of each colour to make it more challenging - so if they get to the last one, it’s a bigger challenge to choose the correct colour when copying a pattern. Also in case any get lost. But overall, good quality and a lovely game
Well made and cute. Exactly what you expect
